Automatically adds links to strings that look like Ethereum addresses so you can quickly look them up on your favourite block explorer. It also prevents you from interacting with known phishing domains by wiping the DOM and displaying text notifying you.

The blacklist can only be updated by myself (@409H) and MyEtherWallet (@tayvano). This is a to prevent anyone from modifying the blacklist (ie: removing something). To request a change to the blacklist, please open an issue or open a pull request with the changes. Make sure you give some details on why the changes are needed.
- Thanks to the team at MyEtherWallet for helping keep the domain blacklist up-to-date!
- Thanks to the team at Cryptominded for the store graphics!
- Due to the recent phishing campaigns going on, we have decided to start a domain blacklist, and
the extension will try to help you from being phished by removing the ability for you to interact with the blacklisted
domain by wiping the DOM and displaying a notice. This functionality is toggleable, but it's best to keep it on.
- If you find a domain that look suspicious and/or confirmed stealing private keys/being malicious, send a pull request or open an issue.
- You can now select your favourite blockchain explorer for links to direct you to.
- This extension will search the DOM for any Ether address (a hexidecimal string) and add a link to it to your favourite blockchain explorer. It will give you the option to add a highlight option so you can easily find addresses.
